Gospel Worthy Unity
Philippians 1:27-30
We are called to live our lives worthy of the gospel we proclaim. Our confession is our commitment & conduct. If our lives don’t match our confession, it’s probably because we do not believe the confession. This morning we will look at what it means to live a manner of life worthy of the gospel.
Gospel Worthy Citizens
Manner of life: this is how you conduct yourself in word, deed, and action.
Our lives and habits should reflect our citizenship in heaven.
Stand firm- As a soldier
One Mind- Single minded purpose
Striving together - As athletes (Contending)
The Glorious Gift of Salvation and Suffering
Believe in Him - Is literally "continually believing into Him.” Saving faith is not a one-time event.
Salvation is a glorious gift that God has granted, and suffering is the means in which God is conforming us into the image of Jesus Christ.
Conflict - The worthy life of gospel unity is not absent of pain.
